Virus Outbreak Italy

The changing room of the Olimpia Club gym empty in the red zone in Molfetta on 2 April 2021. According to the results of the survey conducted by the sports search engine - which includes over 22,500 sports associations and sport-clubs in more than 1,500 Italian municipalities and a community of over 4 million users - during the Covid period, 66% of Italians did physical activity: of these, 34% practiced outdoor activities when possible, 19% alternated outdoor and home activities, another 18% practiced at home with video lessons, 17% in home alone, 7% at home both alone and with video lessons. Important data that, underlined by Orangogo, tell how the need for movement and psycho-physical well-being related to sporting activity emerges, whatever it may be. And another fact emerges: Italians like online lessons, but they are not entirely satisfying. Meanwhile, the gyms and swimming pools have been closed for 4 months now. Four very long months, an eternity for those who have to pay rents, salaries, bills. At the end of October, stopping gyms, fitness centers and swimming pools after the increase in infections in Italy seemed the right solution to stem the second wave. A temporary stop, which no one imagined so long with the risk that they will never reopen. (Photo by Davide Pischettola/NurPhoto)
